Convert entire site to Jekyll/Liquid template system #58

Open mrbellek opened 6 years ago

mrbellek commented 6 years ago

As per the discussion on Discord in #not-a-wiki-development, I volunteered to try my hand at converting the n-a-w website from what it is now (HTML with a sprinkle of PHP) to Jekyll with the Liquid template engine.

My plan is to:

I forked the repo and will put progress up at http://merijn.nu/realm/ Currently the website works and most of the hardcoded lists are converted. I'm open to suggestions and improvements beyond the above list. The conversion from HTML to Markdown is optional and the last step, but it would probably help contributors a lot - since Markdown is a lot cleaner than raw HTML.

This should probably be split into multiple Issues, based on the site subsection which still needs to be converted. I'll take a look and see if I can convert some of the content tomorrow.

Sure thing dross, let me know when I can take a look and maybe we can merge this thing..

mrbellek commented 6 years ago

I've decided to stop screwing with HTML and skip to Markdown conversion.

mrbellek commented 6 years ago

Markdown conversion mostly done.
